1. That is true; it's only a daily power so even if they were to try again and again, it'd likely take many days. 2. Combined with #1 above, it's quite likely someone might die before successfully breaking those chains. No one in the party has actually used the Rod (I call it a scepter because...

I just finished running Crypta Hereticarum for my group (as part of chapter 4), and it was awesome! But there's one problem... They want to go back. Specifically, they want to release Linia, and they have at least two ideas to do so (possibly more that they aren't telling me): Use the...

If you're looking for a definitive list, the diagrams on the traps in Chapter 3 are specifically crafted to designate their positions relative to the sun. On these diagrams, Vona is represented by a white stone surrounded by concentric rings. On the fire trap for example, the first of these...

Spoilers inbound. There's a brief mention in Chapter 9 that if the players are still holding onto any of the four Golden icons, they'll gain their Axis-island-only properties for a brief period. However, the Apet icon had no such ability listed, since there was pretty much no way for the heroes...

I would say the Player Themes do add to the campaign; I'm not sure I would necessarily *recommend* skipping out on them, but it's certainly doable. Since there's more themes than there could reasonably be PCs in the party, none of them have plot-critical roles; the closest that any of them come...

Second try, a little taller. Maybe 80% or so of the Height slider. Seems the items are a bit off, in terms of scale. And I'm not seeing the option to mess with those.

So Hero Forge is looking pretty cool. I'm thinking about getting a mini for Lya, since she tends to show up a lot :P Wondering if anyone had any comments/tips for getting her 'right' before I make the purchase. You can't see it well in this pose, but there's a revolver in her off hand.

It's stated somewhere in Chapter 8 that artifacts still function in Methia, since they have their own reserve of magic that operates independently of the flow of magic through the rest of the world - this is why the Arc of Reida works there. It doesn't mention specifically any of the artifact...

If you're asking what the difference is between the original and 'updated' versions of the adventures are, someone already asked that about the 4e version, and I'll transcribe my answer here. I don't see myself as an expert on the subject, but at least no one quibbled over my answer when I...

Simple typo. D'oh! But thanks for answering my questions!

Two more questions since we're on the topic of mystical divinations: 1) Why does Nevard's vision refer to Luc as "a trumpeter"? I don't get the connection/symbolism. 2) In chapter 5, Ekossigan's poem is a bit vague, correct me if I wander astray in my interpretation: When spring returns to...

Ah, so pretty much the same thing as shadow-attuned lantern oil. Or are they even different substances?

Because I just know one of my players is going to be boneheaded enough to try this at one point... What would happen if someone were to fill a Wayfarer's Lantern with witchoil and light it?

I have a habit of looking back to 3.5 rules when 4th edition has left something ambiguous. According to d20srd, climbing a "rough surface" like a brick wall is a DC 25, but having an opposite wall to brace against gives a -10 DC, for a total of 15 Athletics. Someone in the party should be able...

Since Amielle and Macbannin get ghost versions of their portraits, would it be possible to get one for Nicodemus as well (with the blue-skin treatment)? I'd like to be able to use it for adventure 8.

I've read over all the 'original' versions of chapters 1-5. Looking over my new Act I compilation pdf, here's some of the highlights... The updated version of the Player's Guide and the Campaign Guide included (though I think both are available for free download by now). Updated encounters...

You're not alone. Many of my changes in Chapter 5 were neglected as well, including the puzzling instances in which Dale is referred to as a Captain, Lieutenant, and Major... all in the span of three pages (starting on 344). Seems like the layout guy bit off a little more than he could chew...

I just draw the maps out on a reuseable battle mat; specifically the Chessex Mondomat (if it matters). The downside to this of course is that you pretty much have to set aside a chunk of time right before your gaming session to make the maps, and hope that your party doesn't go a completely...
